This is not related to mental health, you absolute turnip. It’s a post about class dynamics.

And also, even if we were talking about mental health, that’s fucking ridiculous. So you refuse to consider any hypothetical whatsoever?

Actually, as I type this I’m realizing you have all the markers of heavy autism, so it actually may be biologically impossible for you to consider these things.

I like the details an author can give that the Wikipedia page doesn’t have room for. I was just listening to The History of the Ancient World by Susan Wise Bauer which inspired my initial post.

I’m taking issue with your passive tone, as if things just naturally changed all by themselves. There is one specific group directly responsible and we should name them.

Do you exclusively interact with concepts described in a peer reviewed study?

Sargon was fucking nuts. From son of a gardener to king of the world.

Fun fact: I always thought the Mask of Sargon looks like the Chad guy in soyjack memes

Jesse what the fuck are you talking about

It’s literally a concept described in this post.

Wasn’t Shamshi-Adad the first one to claim the title “king of the universe”? 🤣

Assyrian boasting always cracks me up. Sennacherib describes this battle against Babylon:

With the dust of their field covering the heavens, like a wide, mighty storm, they drew up in battle array before me on the bank of the Tigris. They blocked my passage and offered battle. I put on my coat of mail. My helmet, emblem of victory, I placed upon my head. My great battle chariot, which brings low the foe, I hurriedly mounted in the anger of my heart. The mighty bow which Assur had given me, I seized in my hands. The javelin, piercing to the life, I grasped. I stopped their advance, succeeding in surrounding them. I decimated the enemy host with arrow and spear. All of their bodies I bored through. I cut their throats, cut off their precious lives as one cuts a string. Like the many waters of a storm, I made the contents of their gullets and entrails rain down upon the wide earth. My prancing steeds, harnessed for my riding, plunged into the stream of their blood as into a river. The wheels of my war chariot, which brings low the evil and the wicked, were spattered with filth and blood. With the bodies of their warriors, I filled the plain like grass. Their testicles I cut out, and tore out their privates like the seeds of cucumbers of June.

Meanwhile, the Babylonian records say:

The Assyrians lost the battle.

No, they don’t work because they were systematically dismantled by Republicans for a generation.

For some reason I can’t stop reading about Mesopotamia =/

Did you know that in 1770 B.C. Zimri-Lim, king of Madi, was so exasperated by his daughter being such a bitch to his political ally, the king of Ilansura, that he eventually traveled all the way from Madi to Ilansura to “liberate the palace of Ilansura from her presence” (his own words)?

You mean unions? Because they did work, extremely well, for a long time.

Just because something isn’t an academic term doesn’t mean it’s not a real concept.

I haven’t seen any published scientific articles about you, are you sure you’re real?

I don’t think anyone calls themselves “a capitalist” lol this ain’t the 1800s

Some of us support the system of capitalism though. Almost all of us who support capitalism also support strong regulations on it.

It later became more popular in Assyria, but this is iirc the first recorded instance of it happening.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was him, if he had a meticulous brilliant plan to make sure there was no direct evidence, so people would know it was him but they couldn’t prove it in a court of law.

And then the cops were like “it’s cute you think we play by the rules” and planted evidence.

I can say no, but it’s difficult…overtime. They pay me a RIDICULOUS amount of money and usually not much is expected of me because I’m just filling in.

Yo Achaemenids is sick

if you actually believe the fox news ass all men are rapists line

I heard that first-hand from women on this site.

you wouldn’t argue if I said all bears are dangerous

Yeah no shit, that’s the point.

I don’t click on random youtube links.

If you actually read scientific studies you’d know that most of those terms you googled are fairly irrelevant when critiquing the methods of a study or the lack of data in general. They’re all ways of analyzing results and I haven’t taken any issue with them.

I also think scientists nowadays have an undue fetishization of anaylsis to the detriment of basic methodology, but again, that’s irrelevant to the point I’m making.
